Burg Confirms Shawnee Back for Saw 6

Being dead hasn’t stopped Jigsaw from coming back for sequels, has it? As a means to hopefully make amends for the abysmal Saw V (go ahead … sing the song … you know you want to), producer Mark Burg has confirmed that Shawnee Smith will be returning to her role as Amanda in the next sequel.

Smith (you’re welcome for the picture, BTW) will be back for Saw VI along with seven other new characters. Interesting, yes, but not as interesting as this next bit of info. Note the usage of excited caps to really drive Mark’s statements home.

“THIS MOVIE IS A LOT MORE VIOLENT THAN THE PREVIOUS V. LASTLY, WE HAVE TRAPS THAT PIT VICTIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER LIKE THE OPENING OF SAW V. COULD BE THE BEST SCRIPT YET!”

So whattaya think? Hyperbole? Probably. Guess we’ll see come October. For more Saw info hit up the official Saw website for more.
